Dealing with looking different

I feel so out
of place! I'm the only girl in the sixth grade who is in shape and
has decently size boobs. All of my friends are flat-chested or
overweight and have huge boobs. My body is making me stick out. Is
that a problem?

Everybody develops differently, so you
shouldn’t be worried that your friends aren’t exactly the same
size as you. Focus less on boob size and more on personality. Size
isn’t everything, and there’s way more to us than just our
(fabulous) looks! Our bodies are constantly changing, so stressing
about them now isn’t going to do anything except maybe give you a
headache. Instead, learn to love the body you have and also give
your friends some reassurance that they should love their bods, too.

Going through the changes brought on by
puberty is hard for everyone, so don’t think for a second that
you’re the only one who feels awkward. Your buds are probably
finding their own bods difficult to accept right off the bat, too. To
set everyone at ease, focus on the important things, like the totally
crazy adventures you’re all going to have this summer, instead of
on comparing body parts.
